Was just wondering if 17" tethy alloys would fit on ok or would I need spacers?

How many bolts hold the wheels on to your car, if its four then the "Telesto" 6,5 x 16 is a close look alike of the tethy which is a 5 bolt wheel - Mike

You'll need some hubcentric rings, as the Tethy rims are from the older Volvo hub diameter... Offset and size shouldn't be a problem. You'll need the rings to get it down to 63.4mm (older Volvos had something like 65 or so mm).

Ebay does seem to offer them in many sizes. I'd try there.

After googling, I think it is even 68 mm... Not quite sure on that to be honest...
